Why the VQ35 keeps selling
The VQ35 has been fitted across a very wide range of Nissan and Infiniti vehicles for two decades, and in Gulf markets those cars stay on the road far longer than their original owners intended. Replacement demand is steady and buyers are not price-shopping to the last dollar — they want a dependable engine.
The QR25 covers the volume side: Altima and X-Trail are everywhere, and a workshop that fits three a month is a customer for life.
The check on this family, and its limits
Both families have known wear points — the timing chain and oil consumption — and neither can be judged from the outside. What we do on every engine is what we describe: each engine is cleaned, handled and looked over, and its crankshaft is turned by hand with a tool to confirm that the mechanism rotates. It is then photographed from every side, and the photos go into your order file as "Engine 1", "Engine 2", "Engine 3" and so on.
What the check covers: a manual crankshaft rotation check and an individual photo record. It is not a compression, leak-down, bench or running test, so on its own it does not prove how an engine will run once installed.
As with everything we ship: Grade A only, stated in the written Proforma Invoice before payment.

How much does a used QR25DE engine cost?
ENGICOR's published wholesale price for a used QR25DE engine is US$ 430 per engine, gearbox not included, FOB Guangzhou, Grade A, inside a full container of 90 (20-ft) or 130 (40-ft) engines.

Yes. Each engine can be ordered with its matching gearbox, from the same source as the engine: QR25DE + automatic gearbox US$ 660 (engine US$ 430 + gearbox US$ 230). Prices per unit, FOB Guangzhou. Used gearboxes are sold untested and as-is (in their current condition), inside the mixed configurations (45 + 45 or 65 + 65) or in a new customer's first order.

Can I mix Nissan and Toyota in the same container?
Yes, and most buyers do. The container is priced on the mix, not on brand.
Is the VQ35 sold with the intake and accessories?
Engines are supplied as removed from the vehicle. What is fitted varies by unit, and the photos in your order file show what comes with each engine.
